University of Sopron organised a chocolate tasting for its international students at Harrer Chocolate Factory on 5 November 2022. The event was organised in two sessions - one in the morning and one in the afternoon - since there were so many applicants to split up into two groups.
See the photos and check the summaries written by students of the
Faculty of Economics:
"Visiting the chocolate factory can be the most beneficial opportunity for me as a student and as a chocolate lover. Harrer Chocolate is not like any other type of chocolate, both because of its high quality and the fact that its factory is only available in Hungary, specifically in Sopron. It is truly appreciated that this special opportunity is being provided to international students. The Saturday afternoon visit began with a 40-minute walk from the dormitory to the factory, accompanied by supervisors Ms. Márta Sándor and Dr. Ferenc Facskó. Once inside, the visit included a video about the chocolate-making process and many chocolate sampling options, such as dipping fruit in chocolate fountains. Furthermore, students who were interested in purchasing factory products were welcome to do so. As a whole, the visit proved to be worthwhile both from an understanding of the manufacturing process and from tasting the chocolate."

The chocolate tasting was an interesting experience at the Harrer factory in Sopron. We had so much fun, we were satisfied as we took a lot of pics, tasted different chocolates, and got to know how it was made from scratch. I would say I was the happiest student because I got to know that the origin of this sumptuous delicacy is from my continent (Africa).
I look forward to more exciting moments and a chocolate tasting moment again.
